Milne - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia John Milne of Urquhart, Morayshire, born in 1659, was the father of Harry Milne (b.1695), 1st Laird of Chapelton, Forfar. However, the view that the name Milne is derived from the old English 'myln', in turn derived from the Latin 'molina', meaning 'mill', and thus referring to people living 'at or near a mill' is open to question, although it is an obvious and apparently plausible explanation. The arms of the Milne and Molyneux families, if I may refer to them as such, are identical, except that the tinctures (colours) are reversed, as illustrated; this is a recognized form of differencing. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Milne   (662 words)

Global Adrenaline :: Australia New Zealand :: Papua New Guinea Milne Bay is special for its extraordinary richness, not only in terms of the classical tropical reefs teeming with the creatures that divers come from around the world expecting to find, but also in terms of the marine life that is so unusual that much of it is still new to. Milne Bay is also renowned for its reef passes that capture the surging tides, its long barrier reefs and miniature atolls, and its sandy beaches with coral gardens and sheltered bays where sea grass beds hide seahorses, clownfish, frogfish and rare species of eel. Milne Bay is now viewed as having some of the best diving in the world, with its classic coral walls, some of which are sheltered for most of the year from the heavy ocean swells. www.globaladrenaline.com /australianewzealand/papuanewguinea   (1342 words)

Alasdair Milne - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Alasdair Milne was replaced as Director-General by Michael Checkland, who along with his deputy (and eventual successor) John Birt, set about making the BBC conspicuously less radical and more amenable to the Conservatives, not least in the form of Birt's market-driven reforms of the Corporation's internal structure during the 1990s. This was condemned strongly by Douglas Hurd, who was emerging as one of the less Thatcherite and more pro-BBC members of the government, but Milne was still effectively sacked (the idea that he resigned was always more spin than anything else). Such is Milne's antipathy to the contemporary BBC that he now regards himself as its last Director General, and regrets the marginalisation of programme makers at the organisations more senior levels. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Alasdair_Milne   (1045 words)
